A Conversation for UK Petrol Stations

A request and a warning

There is only one thing worse than being Gosho, and that is not being Gosho

Please, in the name of all that's sacred, don't do your weekly grocery shop at a petrol station at 3am. Not only will you be paying through the nose for everything (these places are even more expensive than all other 24 hour stores), but you'll be seriously p*ssing off all the people who make night-time deliveries and who fill up in the small hours, hoping not to get stuck at the pay window behind some dickhead buying washing powder, catfood, corn flakes, and firelighters (all of which are at the far end of the shop), and paying for it in coins which have to be laboriously counted out. Don't do it, right smiley - cross

I'm not really here

I'll agree with this. It used to annoy the pants off me when I was filling up after I'd finished work. Nothing more annoying than pulling into an empty petrol station and still having to wait for AGES after some idiot who's had a skinful and asks the cashier for one item at a time. Dangerous as well, as it's pretty obvious a cabby that is filling up with fuel is likely to have lots of cash about.
